when you open Leadsheet Options have it clearly say this is display only, not for printing. Notation Options would be the same. Notation Options should be for how the Notation looks when you're either looking at Notation or editing/creating Notation. Nothing to do with printing.
It would be easy to indicate somewhere that Leadsheet options are for the Leadsheet window and not for printing. I disagree with your opinion that Notation Options should not carry through to printing. Let's say you set your clef split, chord font, etc. in the Notation options. When you go to print out your song, do you want to again set all these options? That would be very confusing and alot of work.
Perhaps we could rename the "Notation Window Options" dialog to "
Notation Options", and rename the "Lead Sheet Options" dialog to "
Lead Sheet Window Options". This would make it more clear that the Notation options are global notation settings. Also, maybe there are some settings in the Notation Options that ONLY apply to the on-screen display specifically in the notation window (?) and we could have a separate section in the dialog for those.
You have font size in Leadsheet Options and Notation options as percentages. Print Options has it as a default of 24. Why percentages in two of these and a simple number in one?
This is the overall font point size, which is relevant for printing, and fonts are measured in points. If you have visited the Notation Options and have made your chords 200% of the default (twice as large) and the lyrics font 50% as large, you can still adjust the overall print font size, and the proportions will be retained.
You're in Print Options, jeesh. You have to open Notation Options and reset the chord spacing there.
We could add a button to the Print Options to open the Notation Options
Regardless, I certainly agree that more intuitive dialogs are desirable. I do think there needs to be three separate options dialogs in some form though. What settings do you think should be moved?
